Yes, I realize a nice UI could be put together in Blender for installing add-ons from an online repository, but my point was that the bundled add-ons come with Blender and don't need to be installed at all.

If the bundled add-ons were moved out of Blender and into an online

them instead of having them ready to be used out of the box.

You can imagine the exact same UI as in the preferences now, but instead it
gets the add-ons from an online repository.

In practice some things in the UI would change, but installing add-ons does
not have to take more steps.
